Autorenporträt

William Greenwood was born in Arizona. He studied languages and social sciences, ultimately receiving a degree in philosophy cum laude from the University of California. After joining the farm workers' struggle for justice during early unionization, he organized the first agricultural producer-marketing cooperative of Mexican farm workers. This led to a career in development which took him to residencies in Latin America, the Middle East and Central Asia, working on agricultural and small business projects. In the 1970's he co-founded Green Horse Press with a small group of poets to translate and publish new poetry previously unavailable to English-speakers. Green Horse published his translation of a selection from Guatemalan poet Arqueles Morales' La Paz Aún No Ganada which had been selected for the 1971 Cuban Colección La Honda; as well as his first chapbook, Into the Center of America. In 2014 Word Temple Press published Landscape/Cityscape, of which Paul Vangelisti wrote: "Greenwood resumes his singular, sometimes eccentric explorations, getting at the core of what language may propose for one's way of living. It is a sensual, hard-bought knowledge that pervades Greenwood's poetry, founded in and of the world, reinforced by the adventure of language." The present chapbook, Twenty Love Poems and A Song of Hope, was a finalist one year for the Blue Light Poetry Prize.
